Love the depth of these characters & their growth

loved this novel and the total series to be able to see the growth of each character

Layers of historical detail and drama.

Wonderful narration!

This addition to the Poldark books brought a maturity to the older characters and added to the depth of history that affected life in Cornwall. I thought the debate within Ross regarding his reflections on responsibility and revolution were thoughtful and provoking. The entire story became a foil of opposite ideas and colliding hypocrisy mixed up in the complexities of human nature and life within the larger events of its existence.

Hard to believe it was written years after the prior book

So hard to believe the author wrote this book about 20 years after the prior book. It is seamless in storyline. Why did he wait to write it? The narrator does a great job with the different voices and dialects. I feel like he's acting instead of just reading. Highly recommend this series from the beginning. And you have to keep listening to them all.

Love this series!

Would you listen to The Black Moon again? Why?

I have thoroughly enjoyed each book in this series. I love seeing where these characters are headed. I look forward to the discourse between Ross and George, and how the Poldark's will prevail!

Highly recommended

I am enjoying this series so much. It’s very well written and a page turner. Very hard to stop listening. Narrator also does a great job.

Loved it

Winston Graham was such a talented author, and I was so impressed with this book! The Poldark series has never failed to deliver.

good read

this book is a good read. Love the series so far. I can't wait to read the next book.

One more great book

I just love this book. Ross and Demelza's love is stronger. Elizabeth and George has more a marriage of convenience, where they have found a way of life that satisfies each other, which is based on secrets. worth your time, money or Credit.

Poor Morwenna! Poor Drake!

With the perfectly cast actors in the PBS series, I thought of them whilst reading of Drake and Morwenna’s trials and tribulations. And poor Aunt Agatha! At least Dwight provided some good news to offset the bad news villainy of George Warleggan and Osborne Wentworth.

Another good read.

Written very good. Kept me on the edge of my seat. Looking forward to the next book.
